[he's somewhere near a screen, looking up at it with a frown.]

...I guess we'll find out what happened tomorrow.

[disingenuous]

[ she glances from the screen to him. ]

Do you think it'll go smoothly?

[agleam]

[he thinks about that for a moment.]

Depends how you're defining smoothly, I guess.

[disingenuous]

That it'll be solved. I expect people to behave as people do in tense situations.

[agleam]

Then... Yeah, I do think it'll go smoothly by your definition, at least.

[disingenuous]

You have such confidence. Is it because you know you've all done this before?

[agleam]

[after a moment, there's a little shrug.]

If I start doubting or give up before tomorrow even gets here, it's going to make things harder.

[disingenuous]

I don't mean for you to doubt or to lose determination, but I don't think optimism is always necessary. If it works for you, it works for you.

[agleam]

What are you going to rely on instead, then?

[disingenuous]

The reality in front of me.

[agleam]

Do you think it's unrealistic to think we'll get it right? I mean - did that happen a lot in your last place...?

[disingenuous]

No. [ to both. ] I only don't want to count chickens before they hatch. It'd be more surprising if all the experience people have didn't lead them in the right direction.
